<p>Did you ever think we would get to that point in Hip Hop where we would be able to sample Queens- Bohemian Rhapsody and make it as cool as the original?  Well if you thought that day would never come then you were wrong because today is that day.  That&#8217;s right Shaun Boothe has sampled Queens classic and made it into a hip hop beat, and it doesn&#8217;t sound stupid either&#8230; it actually sounds pretty good!  Check it out for yourself by clicking on that link below and be on the look out for Shaun Boothe&#8217;s Hip Hop In 3D project that he is working on.</p>

<p>Someone sent me this remix of Mr Postman by a chap called Cragga just as I finished setting up my blog so I figured, what the hell, let&#8217;s blog it. Love the original, and I love wobbly ridiculous dubstep so I should love this? Shouldn&#8217;t I? I&#8217;m sure it will grow on me&#8230;maybe I&#8217;ll even play it out and see what sort of reaction it gets&#8230;I reckon the student dubstep types will lap it up!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="color:#333333;">Ok, eu sei que é um pouco tarde pra falar sobre isso, mas a pedidos venho aqui. Na mesma semana em que rolou uma matéria no <a href="http://www.noiz.com.br"><span style="color:#333333;"><strong><span style="color:#3366ff;">NOIZ</span></strong></span></a><span style="color:#333333;"> (pra quem não leu, é só clicar </span><a href="http://noiz.com.br/2009/10/23/noiz-apresenta-nave-zica-da-base/"><span style="color:#333333;"><strong><span style="color:#3366ff;">aqui</span></strong></span></a><span style="color:#333333;">) <a href="http://www.myspace.com/navebeatz"><strong>Nave</strong></a> a.k.a Zica da Base esteve em São Paulo, mais precisamente no dia 24/10, onde ministrou um workshop de Produção no CEU Jabaquara. Eu trabalhei nesse workshop, fotografando junto com a Janaina Castelo, apesar de que na hora da palestra eu fiquei bem sentada prestando atenção! ahuheiueaahuia&#8230; Então, muitas pessoas realmente interessadas estiveram presentes. Afinal, Nave é nada mais, nada menos que um dos melhores produtores da atualidade.<br />
Eu penso que um grande diferencial em suas batidas são os samples sempre recortados com perfeição e  o fato dele usar Fruity Loops e conseguir um resultado/ sonoridade impecável, tanto que muitas pessoas ficam supresas ao saber que ele usa o software.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style="color:#333333;"><span style="color:#333333;"><span style="color:#003300;"><img class="size-full wp-image-1860 aligncenter" title="Imagem 338" src="http://popcornflavoured.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/imagem-338b1.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="320" /></span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="color:#333333;"><span style="color:#333333;"><span style="color:#003300;">Munido do FL, alguns drum kits que até então eu nem conhecia (como Battlecat, Dj Muggs, The Roots e Quest Love), um teclado usado como controlador MIDI, e alguns discos, Nave compareceu e fez acontecer. Claro que o tempo era curto e ele teria que resumir bem o conteúdo. Legal é que ele deu dicas muito preciosas (pelo menos pra mim). Falou sobre os plugins Waves e Vst&#8217;s. Sobre compressores, e tentou explicar de uma forma simples, que ajudou até os mais leigos a entender, sem muita enrolação. Ensinou como fazer uma master básica que claro, vai exigir o empenho e boa vontade de quem quer evoluir. Mas o começo, a &#8216;largada&#8217; foi explicada ali, no auditório onde o silêncio, olhos e ouvidos ficaram bem atentos a palestra. Particularmente, uma das coisas que mais gostei foi o modo como ele explicou. Não ficou apenas falando &#8216;Aí aqui nesse canal do sample você usa isso, no bumbo usa aquilo e nas caixas aquilo-outro.&#8221; Não. Nada dessa coisa mecânica. Ele explicou pra QUE você deve e não deve usar tal plugin. A diferença que vai fazer ou não. E sem complicar, ainda deixou bem claro que podemos conseguir muitos deles apenas procurando no Google (tem muita gente que fica regulando, e falam como se fosse quase impossível conseguir).</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="color:#333333;"><span style="color:#333333;"><span style="color:#003300;"> </span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="color:#333333;"><span style="color:#333333;">A equipe do Noiz providenciou tudo para que o workshop acontecesse sem problemas. Mas&#8230;o bendito Windows Vista do notebook foi meio que um &#8216;vilão&#8217; e não foi possível instalar alguns plugins que teriam suas funções explicadas ali&#8230;mas tudo bem. Nos bastidores, antes do evento acontecer, o criador da batida de &#8216;Desabafo&#8217;, rolou alguns samples INCRÍVEIS (sério, de arrepiar) que ele já usou e que poderemos conhecer em seus futuros trabalhos que já estão por vir. Ansiedade master pra ouvir, néam? Claro, e com razão. Em meio a tantos beats, pudemos ouvir o sample da &#8216;E.M.I.C.I.D.A.&#8217; que pra mim é o som mais foda da mixtape. Interessante também foi saber que na maioria dos beats, Nave &#8216;esconde&#8217; o baixo do sample com filtros. Ele prefere tocar a bass line no próprio controlador MIDI, assim ficam mais &#8216;elegantes&#8217; e vivas.<br />
Mas aí que tá&#8230;e pra conseguir tocar o baixo (assim como outros timbres) sem desafinar, acertando a nota, deixar tudo bonitinho e agradável aos ouvidos? Só fuçando e treinando muito. Ou estudando, claro. Ele citou que aprendeu a tocar fuçando&#8230;depois comprou um teclado, e fez aulas de piano, mas já tinha uma noção de notas, etc etc. É, as aulas de piano com certeza o fizeram aperfeiçoar a técnica ainda mais! E claro que isso também foi recomendando no workshop! Afinal, pra quem quer produzir nada melhor que mergulhar de cabeça na música&#8230;</span></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1883" title="Imagem 019" src="http://popcornflavoured.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/imagem-019.jpg" alt="" width="310" height="436" /></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<div style="text-align:justify;"><span style="color:#003300;"><br />
Bom gente, o workshop foi demais, mesmo! Quem não foi, perdeu hehe&#8230;<br />
Além disso, é bom saber que você não precisa ter um equipamento fantáaaastico e caríssimo pra fazer muito barulho, pra fazer acontecer. Nave disse que sempre quis ter uma Mpc, mas nem todo mundo tem grana sobrando pra investir em tudo que tem vontade. E aí que tá, dá orgulho ver que uma pessoa consegue evoluir muito e arregaçar (desculpe, não pensei em outra palavra aheuiheauihau) usando seu FL, seu Logic, seu Acid e os carai a quatro. Fora a humildade do cara. Sem deslumbramentos, sem esnobar ninguém (nego faz isso sendo pouca bosta), foi ali compartilhar seus conhecimentos com pessoas que já entendem bastante, pessoas que querem começar agora e outros só curiosos de plantão&#8230;</p>
<p>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:justify;"><span style="color:#003300;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="text-align:justify;"><span style="color:#003300;"><span style="color:#333333;">Na moral mesmo? Até voltei a fazer beats depois do workshop. Tá lá no <a href="http://www.myspace.com/playmobeats1"><strong><span style="color:#3366ff;">myspace:</span></strong></a> &#8216;Elevator&#8217;, e &#8216;Roads.&#8217;<br />
Me arrisquei mais, usei mais plugins, delays, brinquei na bateria com viradas, usei mais de um sample na mesma batida, recortei um pianinho de um outro som e usei no beat, misturei uma pá de coisas pela primeira vez&#8230;caixas adiantadas, tudo pra tentar deixar um pouco mais swingado aaehauiheauihe&#8230;Ah! e não usei o Swing do FL. Nananina. Fiz tudo pelo Shift mesmo. Se não tentar, não aprende, certo? Dicas breves, porém certeiras de Nave. Mas ainda falta tanta coisa, meu Deus&#8230;é difícil tocar sem ter muita noção, sério! Parece que nunca acerto as notas, grrr! Mas acho que já há uma diferença bem nítida, tanto nos recortes quanto na sonoridade final em si. Não tenho bons monitores, então fiquei meio assim com receio de que &#8216;estourasse&#8217; (calma, não me refiro a explosão, ok? dãaa) quando fosse mexer na master&#8230;então o jeito é usar os fones e ir regulando aos poucos e torcendo pra ficar bom&#8230;aheauiehia (ALACKA!)<br />
Enfim, já escrevi demais. Fiquem agora com alguns momentos marcantes do evento! (isso foi total Nelson Rubens):<br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Robbie Williams edita segundo single de su nuevo disco. La canción You Know Me, incluye un sample de Voilà, de Françoise Hardy, que para muchos pasará desapercibido. Aprovechamos la excusa para hacer un repaso en forma de top a samples (o trozos de otras canciones) en el pop de los últimos años.</p>
<p><strong>10. Robbie Williams &#8211; <em>You Know Me</em> de <em>Voilà</em> &#8211; Françoise Hardy</strong></p>
<p>La verdad es que el sample es sutil y encaja muy bien con el aire retro y pop de la canción. El vídeo, con Robbie Williams disfrazado de conejo y bailarinas montadas en zanahorias, es cosa aparte.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/b7TxtTG4HHo&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/b7TxtTG4HHo&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p><strong>9.Jamelia &#8211; <em>Beware of the dog</em>, de <em>Personal Jesus</em> &#8211; Depeche Mode</strong></p>
<p>Menos gracia tuvo sampleando Jamelia, que tiró del pegadizo hit de Depeche Mode para su canción. El resultado no es que sea desastroso, pero poco le queda a la canción si le quitas el sample.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/LzCtl2v8Ao0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/LzCtl2v8Ao0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p><strong>8. Marta Sánchez &#8211; <em>Superstar</em>, de <em>Just Can&#8217;t Get Enough</em>, de Depeche Mode</strong></p>
<p>El sample también se ha cultivado en territorio nacional. La Sánchez, fiel a su título de Madonna española, copió a la ambición rubia (como lleva haciendo 30 años). Que la ambición rubia vuelve al dance y samplea canciones de los 80, pues ella también. Respaldada por Carlos Jean y cogiendo de este pegadizo hit de Depeche Mode, se marcó esta cutrada de canción y se quedó tan ancha. El problema es que si Madonna se apunta con cierto retraso a las modas, no te digo ya la Sánchez. Tarde y poco original es lo mejor que se puede decir de este engendro musical.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/yjp8A-Fpucg&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/yjp8A-Fpucg&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p><strong>7. David Guetta feat Kelly Rowland &#8211; <em>When Love Takes Over</em>, de <em>Clocks</em> &#8211; Coldplay</strong></p>
<p>El DJ y productor está arrasando con su disco y con sus producciones para los Black Eyed Peas. Pero, ¿un sample de Coldplay para una canción dance no sería ir demasiado lejos? Guetta supo aprovechar lo pegadizo de la intro de piano, aunque se abusa un poco durante la canción. Sin embargo, el efecto logrado es bastante resultón.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/zudbz4hOcbc&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/zudbz4hOcbc&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p><strong>6. Britney Spears &#8211; <em>Radar</em>, de <em>Tainted Love</em> &#8211; Soft Cell</strong></p>
<p>A la hora de samplear la Spears no podía ser menos, y decidió tirar de este clásica versión de Soft Cell para su electro-pop-petardo en Radar, que está incluida en Blackout y en Circus (la misma canción en dos discos, sí señores). Al igual que Jamelia, poco queda de la canción si le quitas el sample, pero al menos el resultado final es un poco más digno.El problema es que este sample ya lo había usado alguien unos años antes&#8230;</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/8-miljmyig0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/8-miljmyig0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p><strong>5. Rihanna &#8211; <em>SOS</em>, de <em>Tainted Love</em> &#8211; Soft Cell</strong></p>
<p>Sí, Rihanna, hoy estrella internacional gracias a su Umbrella y otras peripecias, ya había usado para su debut este sample en sus SOS y con un efecto más contudente que la Spears.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/4eeyhtlJp5A&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/4eeyhtlJp5A&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p><strong>4. Madonna &#8211; <em>Future Lovers</em>, de <em>I feel love</em> &#8211; Dona Summer</strong></p>
<p>El Confessions de Madonna está repleto de sample bien usados. Uno de los más característicos y aparentes (aparte del de Jackson 5, no incluído en este ranquing) es de Dona Summer, que curiosamente era contemporánea de Madonna en los 80. La gracia es que la canción de la Summer era tan avanzada  a su tiempo que no parece para nada una canción de los 80, con lo que la elección para el sample es bastante acertada.</p>

<p><strong>3. Kylie &#8211; <em>Sensitized</em>, de <em>Bonnie &#38; Clyde</em> &#8211; Serge Gainsbourg</strong></p>
<p>La diva australiana fue más lista sampleando en su último disco X, y cogió también de una canción poco conocida por el público actual. El sample del maestro Gainsboroug, si bien un poco estrambótico, le sienta muy bien a la canción.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/bBwqzJELb48&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/bBwqzJELb48&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p><strong>2. Gwen Stefani &#8211; Wind  it Up, de Lonely Goatherd &#8211; Banda sonora de Sonrisas y Lágrimas</strong></p>
<p>Más rocambolesco fue lo de la Stefani. ¿Ese sample tirolés en una canción pop hip-hop al estilo Stefani? Según ella quiso incluirlo porque Sonrisas y Lágrimas era una de sus películas favoritas. A las primeras escuchas no pegaba ni con cola, pero uno se acababa acostumbrado y hasta le encontraba su gracia&#8230;</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/DnW8k4O7mEU&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/DnW8k4O7mEU&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p><strong>1. Madonna &#8211; <em>Hung Up</em>, de <em>Gimme</em> de Abba</strong></p>
<p>Es evidente que el sample del que más se hablado en los últimos años fue el del Hung Up, del retorno de Madonna a las pistas de baile. La canción supo aprovechar lo pegadizo del sample para crear una canción totalmente nueva, cosa que no siempre se consigue. Los Abba se mostraron encantados de que la reina del pop sampleara su hit, así que todos contentos.</p>

This campaign by the Dancer, Fitzgerald and Sample Ad Agency generated the biggest catch phrase of the 80&#8217;s. &#8220;Where&#8217;s the beef&#8221; appeared on bumper stickers and t-shirts across the United States.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;">Seven went to Seattle to visit his Mom. Seattle also birthed an awesome rockband named, Nirvana, who made THIS ALBUM:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1077" title="nirvana_nevermind_cover" src="http://thecoolniverse.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/nirvana_nevermind_cover.jpg" alt="" width="420" height="420" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I was back home, listening to one of my favorite bands of all time, <strong>The Pixies</strong>. Who actually influenced Nirvana&#8217;s &#8220;Nevermind&#8221; album. So, I told Seven let&#8217;s sample my favorite song of all time.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1078" title="twitternevermind" src="http://thecoolniverse.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/twitternevermind.jpg" alt="" width="420" height="216" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">That song is called, <strong><em>&#8220;Hey&#8221;</em></strong>, by The Pixies.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/v6xU96KLBL4&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/v6xU96KLBL4&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I chopped up the sample, sent it to Seven&#8230;and&#8230;recreated one of my favorite rock songs of all time.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://usershare.net/g7xdhw8ei04e"><strong>XV &#8211; NEVERMIND</strong></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">But, I didn&#8217;t like it as much as some of the other material on &#8220;<em>Look What I Can Do</em>&#8220;, so&#8230;I said&#8230;nevermind. And sent it to my people at <a href="http://www.ynotmydream.blogspot.com/">YNotMyDream</a> for their mixtape.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">The End.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Si!! Leeis bien, PICs gratis y esto es debido a que microchip te proporciona PICs para que hagas tus pruebas y proyectos, yo ya lo he hecho y he pedido dos PICs que son los que te pueden dar.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.antury.com/publicaciones/Publicacion%20PIC18F97J60/microchip%20logo.jpg" alt="" width="744" height="468" /><!--more--></p>
<p>Os cuento, en mi caso que soy estudiante de universidad, al tener una cuenta de correo universitaria se pueden pedir PIC con el fin de que puedas hacer tus proyectos, esto la hacen con el fin de que cuando tengas tus prototipos hechos, lo hagas con microchip y cuando tengas que hacer grandes cantidades los chips sean de esta marca.</p>
<p>Pero a lo que os interesa como se piden, entrais en la pagina de microchip http: <a href="http://www.microchip.com/">www.microchip.com</a>.</p>
<p>Despues vais a la pestaña de BUY/SAMPLES  y seleccionais samples y os lleva a otra ventana.</p>
<p>En la nueva ventana, bajo hay unas pestañas para elegir la familia de los PICs que quereis y al lado el PIC concreto, buscais el que mas querais (ojo solo se pueden pedir dos).</p>
<p>Vais a una lista del componente y aparece los distintos tipos de encapsulados, patas que hay y toda la pesca esa, los que se pueden pedir aparece a la izquierda un simbolo, lo seleccionais y os lo mete en el carro de la compra,lo haceis con los dos que querais.</p>
<p><a href="http://patosupersonico.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/samples.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-92" title="SAMPLES" src="http://patosupersonico.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/samples.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="209" /></a></p>
<p>Para acabar vais al carro de la compra, arriba a la derecha y dais a chech out, os registrais si no estais registrados ya (ojo con la cuenta de la universidad que si no no os lo mandan) seguis los pasos y a esperar a que os manden los PICs.</p>
<p>Por cierto yo pedi el PIC con el que se realiza el pinguino del post anterior, con lo que tenerlo ahora cuesta menos jejeje.</p>
<p>Espero que os haya servido.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Il y a des albums dont on sait d&#8217;avance qu&#8217;ils vont créer le débat. Ou plutôt, qu&#8217;ils vont susciter l&#8217;enthousiasme aveugle des fans, et le cynisme assassin des détracteurs. Et avec un plan promo basé sur sa vie personnelle, <strong>Diam&#8217;s</strong> a choisi le choc frontal, en espérant que le voile qui le recouvre atténue la violence de l&#8217;impact. J&#8217;ai écouté &#8220;<strong>SOS</strong>&#8221; sans a priori, mon côté fleur bleu en éveil, presque dans l&#8217;attente de la bonne surprise, prêt à reconnaître que la rappeuse avait pris une autre dimension et qu&#8217;elle méritait mieux qu&#8217;une descente en règle de son album. Sauf que malheureusement, tout ce qui m&#8217;est venu à l&#8217;esprit, ce sont<strong> 5 raisons de ne pas aimer cet album</strong>.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p><a href="http://theyellowkid.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/diams-i-am-somebody.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5224" title="diams i am somebody" src="http://theyellowkid.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/diams-i-am-somebody.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="380" /></a></p>
<p><strong>5. Diam&#8217;s radote comme une petite vieille.</strong> Les morceaux qui composent l&#8217;album peuvent être classés en cinq thèmes: la religion, sa mère, les politiciens, les ruptures amoureuses, je ne suis plus la même. Libre à vous ensuite de les mettre dans l&#8217;ordre que vous souhaitez, et de les décliner à volonté dans chacun des couplets, même lorsqu&#8217;il n&#8217;y a aucun lien entre eux. Et d&#8217;agrémenter le tout avec 53 rimes qui utilisent &#8220;mail&#8221;, &#8220;marianne&#8221; ou marine&#8221;.</p>
<p>Alors écouter &#8220;SOS&#8221; d&#8217;un trait sans être soulé ou en sachant quel titre parle de quoi relève de l&#8217;exploit, tant les morceaux se ressemblent tous, comme sur une bonne vieille compil de Zouk Love. Dommage, car une seule chanson efficace suffisait pour exploiter chaque thème (&#8220;Poussière&#8221; et sa jolie image pas trop mal exploitée par exemple).</p>
<p>Je pensais que l&#8217;intérêt de faire un interminable morceau de 10min (&#8220;Si c&#8217;était le dernier&#8221;) était de tout raconter pour se laisser le temps d&#8217;exploiter d&#8217;autres sujets sur le reste de l&#8217;opus. Pas de refaire un autre titre de 9min07 pour expliquer que Tu Es Quelqu&#8217;un, et raconter encore une fois la même chose.</p>
<p><a href="http://theyellowkid.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/diams-medine.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5228" title="diams medine" src="http://theyellowkid.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/diams-medine.png" alt="" width="320" height="256" /></a></p>
<p><strong>4. Diam&#8217;s manque cruellement d&#8217;originalité.</strong> Je ne parlerai pas de la couleur musicale qui reste inchangée par rapport au précédent &#8220;Dans ma bulle&#8221;, du piano-voix larmoyant et des mélodies simplissimes. Je ne parlerai pas non plus du débat houleux sur le magnifique sample de <strong>Sia</strong> &#8220;<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSts_0sCUeg&#38;feature=fvst" target="_blank">Soon we&#8217;ll be found</a>&#8220;, honteusement pompé et saccagé par Street Fab sur le titre &#8220;Dans le noir&#8221;. Après tout, les reprises ont toujours existé, et chacun est libre de réinterpréter un morceau qu&#8217;il apprécie, ou d&#8217;écouter uniquement les originaux. Soit.</p>
<p>Par contre, le personnage hybride que tente de se construire Diam&#8217;s me gêne. Absorbant la marque de fabrique de ses artistes-référence, Diam&#8217;s se transforme en Cell (pour les fans de Dragon Ball) et reprend à son compte l&#8217;identité de <strong>Médine</strong> (défense ouverte de l&#8217;Islam et de la foi), <strong>Keny Arkana</strong> (séjour en hôpital psychiatrique, textes écrits à la lueur de la Lune, revendications alter-mondialiste et tiers-mondiste), <strong>Booba</strong> (couplets matérialistes aux métaphores extérieures de richesse multiples, intonations similaires) et <strong>Kery James</strong> (long morceau hargneux sans refrain, voix à la limite de la rupture et interprétation excessive).</p>
<p>Et si vous trouvez que mes références sont tirées par les cheveux, relisez les réponses de Diam&#8217;s du temps où elle donnait encore des interviews, ou faites attention à sa liste de MCs favoris dans &#8220;L&#8217;honneur d&#8217;un peuple&#8221;. Si vous avez un peu de temps, écoutez donc à la suite &#8220;<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xr0HdiLCsXM" target="_blank">Eh connard</a>&#8221; et &#8220;<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CP9b1Rrb7J4" target="_blank">La solitaire</a>&#8221; (Keny Arkana) et &#8220;<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZaRxpmyD_A" target="_blank">Le combat continue 3</a>&#8221; (Kery James), puis enchaînez avec &#8220;Si c&#8217;était le dernier&#8221; (Diam&#8217;s). Et jetez également une oreille à l&#8217;excellent opus &#8220;Arabian Panther&#8221; de Médine, vous comprendrez d&#8217;où vient le côté religieux décomplexé de la Jeune Demoiselle.</p>
<p>A la différence près qu&#8217;après avoir écouté les morceaux originaux, on peut ressentir l&#8217;envie de faire la révolution, de devenir un imam ou de vendre des kilos de coke. Après avoir écouté Diam&#8217;s, on a juste envie de passer à autre chose.</p>
<p><a href="http://theyellowkid.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/diams-miroir-sos.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5225" title="diams miroir sos" src="http://theyellowkid.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/diams-miroir-sos.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="500" /></a></p>
<p><strong>3. Diam&#8217;s est un peu schizophrène.</strong> Elle l&#8217;avoue elle-même. Et même si elle essayait de le cacher, la vérité éclaterait au grand jour malgré tout. Parce qu&#8217;elle a cette faculté à rimer une chose et son contraire: elle ne veut pas grandir dans &#8220;Peter Pan&#8221; mais se grouille d&#8217;être un modèle pour les petites soeurs dans &#8220;L&#8217;honneur d&#8217;un peuple&#8221;. Elle repousse la gloire et ses paillettes maléfiques mais veut qu&#8217;on garde d&#8217;elle l&#8217;image &#8220;d&#8217;une fille qui rêvait d&#8217;être Reine auprès du Roi&#8221;. Elle revendique des idées et une conscience politique mais avoue ne &#8220;rien comprendre pour l&#8217;instant&#8221;, toujours dans &#8220;Peter Pan&#8221;. Et qu&#8217;on ne me fasse pas croire qu&#8217;elle parle à la place d&#8217;un enfant de 6 ans, vu qu&#8217;elle évoque aussi ses impôts, ses PV, son pactole.</p>
<p>Elle veut être traitée comme un symbole, un modèle pour les femmes qui s&#8217;assument et qui luttent pour leur survie, mais parle encore de Petit Coeur qui se fait larguer par une Bombe (&#8220;Coeur de Bombe&#8221;) alors qu&#8217;elle approche des 30 ans. Diam&#8217;s n&#8217;a pas grandi en même temps que son public féminin, et conserve son discours destiné aux midinettes qui découvrent avec émoi qu&#8217;un garçon ne rêve pas que de jouer à Street Fighter IV le mercredi après midi.</p>
<p>Est ce qu&#8217;elle a mal choisi son personnage à marketer pour séduire le public le plus large possible, est ce qu&#8217;elle se ment à elle même en essayant de se persuader qu&#8217;elle ne vieillit pas, est ce qu&#8217;elle n&#8217;assume pas qui elle aimerait devenir? Elle seule peut répondre, mais pas à travers un album visiblement.</p>

<p><strong>2. Diam&#8217;s vit dans un monde de Bisounours. </strong>A l&#8217;abri dans son refuge manichéen, la MC écrit ses textes à minuit dans le jardin du Bien et du Mal, éclairée par la Lune. Sans jamais trouver de juste milieu. L&#8217;Europe, c&#8217;est mal. L&#8217;Afrique, c&#8217;est bien. Le Gouvernement, c&#8217;est mal. La banlieue, c&#8217;est bien. L&#8217;homme, c&#8217;est mal. La femme, c&#8217;est bien. Il n&#8217;y a pas de place pour la nuance, pour la réflexion, pour le réél.</p>
<p>Toutes les mères sont des héroïnes, tous les enfants sont innocents, tous les métis souffrent, ce sont les hommes qui trompent et quittent, la drogue est partout, la variété française c&#8217;est nul. D&#8217;ailleurs, lorsque Diam&#8217;s demande ce que va faire la variet&#8217; quand elle l&#8217;aura plagié, j&#8217;ai juste envie de répondre qu&#8217;elle peut faire un procès pour violation des droits d&#8217;auteur et récupérer une bonne partie de tes royalites et de ta fortune personnelle dont tu parles tant. Mais dans l&#8217;univers simpliste de la Boulette, qui se veut peut être être le reflet de sa vie, ce n&#8217;est pas possible d&#8217;être poursuivi à cause de son Art. Parce que le rap, c&#8217;est bien.</p>
<p><a href="http://theyellowkid.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/diams-voile.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5227" title="diams voile" src="http://theyellowkid.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/diams-voile.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="375" /></a></p>
<p><strong>1. Diams n&#8217;est pas si authentique.</strong> Je m&#8217;explique. L&#8217;effort d&#8217;interprétation sur la plupart des titres de l&#8217;album aurait pu être intéressant et apporter un vrai plus artistique, mais verse trop rapidement dans l&#8217;agressivité mal contrôlée qui sonne faux. Le manque flagrant de sincérité me gêne, d&#8217;autant plus que j&#8217;aurai voulu la défendre, expliquer que la mise en lumière tardive de sa reconversion est déplacée, saluer la mise à nu d&#8217;une artiste qui a plus à perdre qu&#8217;à gagner, en bref, avouer à demi-mot que &#8220;SOS&#8221; de Diam&#8217;s n&#8217;est pas un mauvais album.</p>
<p>En choisissant d&#8217;exposer sa vie au grand jour, d&#8217;assumer ses convictions religieuses devant les caméras et de revendiquer cette force nouvelle trouvée dans la spiritualité, Diam&#8217;s donne juste l&#8217;explication indispensable à la compréhension de ses paroles. Parce que dans le fond, Diam&#8217;s souffre simplement du syndrome de la femme européenne blanche reconvertie à l&#8217;Islam. Elle veut en faire plus que les autres, elle estime qu&#8217;elle a encore plus de choses à prouver que les soeurs nées dans le Din, elle complexe de ne pas obtenir la reconnaissance automatique de sa foi et redouble d&#8217;efforts pour se faire accepter de sa comunauté d&#8217;accueil.</p>
<p>Quitte à livrer une liste de chansons remplies d&#8217;apparences, dans lesquelles Diam&#8217;s se noie et se perd à chaque mesure, trop obsédée par le regard des autres. Alors pour le coup, je dois reconnaître que le titre de son album est vraiment bien choisi.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://view.picapp.com/default.aspx?" target="_blank"><img src="http://cdn.picapp.com/ftp/Images/1/d/1/1/Portrait_of_a_29a4.jpg?adImageId=6696868&amp;imageId=5232438" width="413" height="413" border=0  /></a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdn.pis.picapp.com/IamProd/PicAppPIS/JavaScript/PisV4.js"></script> </p>
<blockquote><p>A statistics professor was describing sampling theory to his class, explaining how a sample can be studied and used to generalize to a population. One of the students in the back of the room kept shaking his head.</p>
<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s the matter?&#8221; asked the professor. &#8220;I don&#8217;t believe it,&#8221; said the student, &#8220;why not study the whole population in the first place?&#8221; The professor continued explaining the ideas of random and representative samples. The student still shook his head. The professor launched into the mechanics of proportional stratified samples, randomized cluster sampling, the standard error of the mean, and the central limit theorem. The student remained unconvinced saying, &#8220;Too much theory, too risky, I couldn&#8217;t trust just a few numbers in place of ALL of them.&#8221;</p>
<p>Attempting a more practical example, the professor then explained the scientific rigor and meticulous sample selection of the Nielsen television ratings which are used to determine how multiple millions of advertising dollars are spent. The student remained unimpressed saying, &#8220;You mean that just a sample of a few thousand can tell us exactly what over 250 MILLION people are doing?&#8221;</p>
<p>Finally, the professor, somewhat disgruntled with the scepticism, replied, &#8220;Well, the next time you go to the campus clinic and they want to do a blood test&#8230;tell them that&#8217;s not good enough &#8230;tell them to TAKE IT ALL!!&#8221; (<a href="http://my.ilstu.edu/~gcramsey/Gallery.html">source</a>)</p></blockquote>

<div id="attachment_88" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://richieahb.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/s41024.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-88 " title="s41024" src="http://richieahb.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/s41024.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">John Oswald&#39;s &#39;Plunderphonics&#39;</p></div>
<p></em></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>So, I&#8217;m about to start my final year dissertation on the subject of <em>plunderphonia</em> and I thought I&#8217;d crack out a little post on the subject to get my juices flowing (if I weren&#8217;t determined on making this post a pure stream of consciousness I&#8217;d definitely replace the phrase &#8216;juices flowing&#8217;).  Plunderphonia is a term used to describe the reworking of existing audio material into something new (literally &#8217;stealing sound&#8217; in a little fusion of English and Greek) &#8211; it&#8217;s what most people would think of today as &#8217;sampling&#8217;.  It&#8217;s a pretty interesting subject and even though the term plunderphonia is over twenty years old it is perhaps more relevant today than it ever was due to the increase ease of gaining music for free.  If people are streaming music on Spotify and You Tube for free then why can&#8217;t people take this &#8216;free&#8217; music and go on to do something new and invigorating with it?</p>
<p>For many the idea of reworking existing sounds into a new composition smacks of a lack of authenticity &#8211; it feels cheap and half-arsed.  However, for some it is no different to hearing a nice chord progression and reusing that in a creative and original way.  The problem in both of these cases are the words &#8216;new&#8217; and &#8216;original&#8217; &#8211; what constitutes this &#8216;bettering&#8217;?  Is the reworking merely reusing the positive attributes of the old recording whilst adding nothing to it?  Clearly this is all very subjective and would be extremely hard to quantify by a selection of unbiased musicologists, let alone a judge in a copyright case.  At the moment though, even &#8216;bettering&#8217; is apparently still not a justifiable reason for reusing someone&#8217;s music without first obtaining consent, paying royalties etc.</p>
<p>The original pioneer in the area of plunderphonia was Canadian composer John Oswald who coined the phrase &#8216;plundephonics&#8217; and released an album titled thus.  The album contained reworkings of individual tracks or a selection of an artists work (e.g. a reworking of Igor Stravinsky&#8217;s <em>Rite of Spring</em> or an amalgam of many different Metallica tracks).  Skipping aside much of the history, the album was disseminated for free to reviewers and radio stations but was eventually pulled by The Canadian Recording Industry Association despite Oswald&#8217;s &#8216;not-for-profit&#8217; attitude. [The album is still available digitally from <a href="http://www.sendspace.com/file/umm1g7">here</a>].  Since then many prominent people have discussed the issue but there are still so many grey areas.  Even trivial question such as &#8216;how much borrowing is too much?&#8217; can&#8217;t really be answered in any authoritative sense.  For example Justice&#8217;s album <em>Cross</em> is said to feature around 400 uncleared samples but they are apparently too small or distorted to be recognized and as such nothing has been done about it (<a href="http://www.beatportal.com/feed/item/justice-admit-to-theivery/">source</a>).</p>
<p>As was mentioned earlier, reworking an actual piece of music is for many viewed as cheap and inauthentic whereas tracks that feature many similar features but perhaps are considered more pastiche than reworking (one of a plethora of example being the &#8216;trance&#8217; style although every genre has it&#8217;s idioms and conventions) count as original and new.  Yet, we are at a point where people such as David Cope can create computer&#8217;s known as neural networks that, when fed a collection of sheet music by say Chopin, can regurgitate a work in the style of Chopin that is (at least to my ignorant ears) nigh on indistinguishable from the original.  [See the album <em>Bach by Design</em>].  Such heretical replication of teh masters of classical music may worry some people but to others the computer is merely doing what our brain is doing in discovering these new permutations on a style. In John Oswald&#8217;s paper <em>Bettered by the Borrower: The Ethics of Musical Debt </em>he cites a section from the story <em>Melancholy Elephants</em> by Spider Robinson which reads:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Artists have been deluding themselves for centuries with the notion that they create.   In fact they do nothing of the sort.   They discover.   Inherent in the nature of reality are a number of combinations of musical tones that will be perceived as pleasing by a human central nervous system.   For millennia we have been discovering them, implicit in the universe&#8211;and telling ourselves that we &#8216;created&#8217; them. </em>(<a href="http://www.spiderrobinson.com/melancholyelephants3.html">original</a>)</p></blockquote>
<p>Whilst this passage is by no means evidence that music is maybe &#8216;discovered&#8217; (and that therefore that this idea of creator&#8217;s ownership is in fact more of an infantile game of &#8216;finders-keepers&#8217;) it does help to raise a few questions about the ownership of music to anyone who hasn&#8217;t thought about it.  Even such seemingly intricate areas such as timbres are, for the most-part, very much idiomatic and genre-specific and perhaps in the future we will see neural networks decide on what harmonics and filtering to put on fundamentals frequencies depending on what the computer is fed.  Maybe, in genres where timbre is more varied and widespread, a computer may interpolate between the differing timbers in ways which a human mind never could and perhaps create timbres the likes of which we would never have thought of.  All of this is fairly tangential to say the least (and pie in the sky to say the most) but nevertheless, it all helps to emphasise that the idea of musical &#8216;ownership&#8217; is something which should at least be challenged (although I haven&#8217;t even started to get into the ways in which Western laws discriminate between right and wrong in this area).</p>
<p>On reflection I personally believe there should be much more leniency in the reworking of existing songs.  However, there is obviously a problem in this commercial day and age with the problem of not actually &#8216;bettering&#8217; the songs and as yet it appears there is no agreed method for judging this.  Unfortunately, many people don&#8217;t feel a need for this change and as such don&#8217;t feel a need to spend time solving a problem they don&#8217;t want fixed.  And yet, the people who <em>do</em> want it fixed can&#8217;t seem to find a method to rally around.  Until this changes musicians will have to rework the songs of the artists who work under things such as the Creative Commons Licence, pay money to those artists who are not under CC or the like or use samples that are &#8216;unrecognizable&#8217; (whatever that may mean).  However, without the use of so many &#8216;recognizable&#8217; samples composers will be unable to make good use of all the strong and specific cultural associations that are tied to any one of these songs &#8211; a true shame.</p>

<li>With that ‘MUSKA 002′ on the tongue, is Supra trying to tell us that Chad is as smooth as James Bond, or that they intend to<a href="http://sneakernews.com/2009/04/18/supra-skylow-15-vaider-fall-09/"> extend the Skytop line</a> into the triple digits?!  We’d have to lean toward the former of those two, though the new <a href="http://sneakernews.com/2009/11/14/supra-skytop-ii-gradient/">Supra Skytop II</a> in metallic gold patent leather is flashier than anything the MGM franchise character ever wore.  They have a lightly pearlized finish that keeps the upper from blinding you, while black and white accents are pretty much the only thing stopping you from floating straight into the sun.  Cop this small sample pair in US men’s size 6, well in advance of their retail release from <a href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&#38;pub=5574664426&#38;toolid=10001&#38;campid=5335897303&#38;customid=Supra+Skytop+II+Gold&#38;icep_item=220509593471&#38;ipn=psmain&#38;icep_vectorid=229466&#38;kwid=902099&#38;mtid=824&#38;kw=lg">d_is_rolling on eBay</a>.<strong> via sneakernews.com</strong></li>

<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>&#8220;Africa&#8221; le tube du  groupe de rock américain Toto a donné (entre autres) deux bonnes chansons de rap. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong><!--more--><br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>TOTO &#8220;Africa&#8221; 1983 </strong></p>
<p>On ne se moque pas  des moustaches d&#8217;épiciers, des coupes de cheveux et des dégaines impossibles des californiens.  C&#8217;était il y a 26 ans merde !</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/lPT_3PEjnsE&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/lPT_3PEjnsE&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>Petite info : Steve Barron le réalisateur de ce clip kitchissime la même année va réaliser &#8220;Billie Jean&#8221; de <a href="http://unpuzzledemotsetdepensees.wordpress.com/2009/06/25/michael-jackson/" target="_blank">Michael Jackson</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Nas &#8220;New World&#8221; 1999</strong></p>
<p>Quatrième album pour Nasir Jones et aussi (selon moi) un des plus mauvais de sa discographie.  Cette chanson est celle où il s&#8217;en sort le mieux.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/PBJ6gDdTarM&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/PBJ6gDdTarM&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p><strong>Zo &#38; Tigallo &#8220;Africa&#8221; 2008</strong></p>
<p>J&#8217;adore cette version. Tigallo aka Phonte de Little Brother et au chant et Zo! est à la console. Ce titre est tiré de leur projet indé (tiré à 2500 exemplaires numérotés)  &#8220;Zo! &#38; Tigallo Love The 80&#8217;s&#8221;.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/HhEXFH0R0LY&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/HhEXFH0R0LY&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>Ja Rule a également repris ce sample pour en faire une <a href="http://unpuzzledemotsetdepensees.wordpress.com/2009/09/15/patrick-swayze-was-hip-hop/" target="_blank">merde sans nom</a> et je crois que Xzibit aussi l&#8217;a utilisé.</p>
<p>C&#8217;était juste un puzzle de mots et de pensées.</p>
